    ADDRESS RESOLUTION PROTOCOL PARAMETERS

    The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) specified in [RFC826] has
    several parameters.  The assigned values for these parameters are
    listed here.

    REVERSE ADDRESS RESOLUTION PROTOCOL OPERATION CODES

    The Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) specified in [RFC903]
    uses the "Reverse" codes below.

    DYNAMIC REVERSE ARP

    The Dynamic Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (DRARP) uses the
    "DRARP" codes below.  For further information, contact: David Brownell
    (suneast!helium!db@Sun.COM).

    INVERSE ADDRESS RESOULUTION PROTOCOL

    The Inverse Address Resolution Protocol (IARP) specified in [RFC1293]
    uses the "InARP" codes below.
